Title: Coda
Details: PG, ~6,800 words, McKay/Sheppard. Set a year and a half after the end of Unidentified.

Notes: Spoilers for the original story, and this won't make much sense if you haven't read that. If you liked where Unidentified left off, there's no particular need to read this; I wrote it to satisfy my own curiosity about what happened down the line. Many thanks to
